I disagree. Over analysing can definitely hurt you. A whole lot. I think it has to do how you analyze things. Pondering over one problem for days is definetely not the way to go. Over anylyzing is, pardon my crude language here please, it is nerdish. Doesn't mean you don't have to face your problems and that you can sweep them under a mat though. Instead you should realise what is happening and accept it. Don't judge anything, nothing is right or wrong, no expectations either. Just take the problem at hand as it is and then think what you want to happen. Next: take action and change the problem if you so choose. Then you are free to move on. Over analysing can't ever be good. Nothing is good when done more than enough, definitely not when done a lot more than enough.

Smilies are not gentle, they're emotional. Big difference. It's fun. :thumbup: I might actually do it if I get some more (good :P) options ;).

Exactly. Try to decide what to do based on knowing that she is definitely interested.

Thing is though, this specific design has nothing "gentle/tender" about it :P.

Lol, why Goonstalf? Shouldn't you want it to say pirate_felix?

Ooh, that's great :P. Maybe I should use the Uzzisoft thingy like Steve?

I am missing your point. Enjoyment is a side effect of sex, not its natural purpose. I still don't see where you're going here. Why do we have that side effect? Sex is fun because if it wasn't, nobody in their right mind would do it. Countless animals do it without enjoying it. Anyway, this point is slightly off topic. I was trying to exlain to Yguy why gay-ness isn't unnatural but decided to give it up.

great now we are back together. why cant love be simple :wall: Wait... You don't want to be with her, but you got back together?

In Soviet Russia, ridiculous cults join YOU. It's not smart to use my current sig as Goon's because...

Test.

Lol guys! I'll definitely use your signatures if/when I get tired of Stevepole's. Keep 'em comin' :P.

That's definitely not the only reason. You're right, there's also racism to consider as well. I wasn't saying that as a justification for it's illegality, if that's what you were thinking. I definitely support legalization of marijuana.

That's definitely not the only reason.

I second that. Pretty much the best definition in this thread.

I can often be a self-deprecating [wagon], but it can make others feel better about themselves. So, what I would do is: force her to break up with you by acting like a complete dip[cabbage]. That way, she isn't all hurt by you (until she finds out you acted differently to get her to break up with you) and you can be single again. It's like those wacky sitcoms! Or, you can be a man and just end it. I like the first option more. Remember: The ideal boyfriend is someone who is proficient in listening, communication, and compromise. Be proficient in none of these things. Studies have shown the best way to feign interest in what a chick is saying is to silently nod your head to "My Sharona." It doesn't seem like the most mature way to handle it. And it drags the relations on pointlessly. He should probably just end it politely and try to do it with as little harm as possible on her side.

Congratumalations!!! That's great :D!

It could be someone else's drink, and boy, they'd get mad! (Molten steel is very hard to find in milkshake form!!) It's not smart to perform a volunteer experiment of whether or not humans can fly because...

Break up with her. Gently.

No harm is done :P. @Mazemeout: Next time you can use the "Real life help & advice" thread ;).

If some people like sleeping with little kids, that means that at least some of us want to do that. Why should this be the case, if we are naturally supposed to sleep with other adults? Humans have always done unatural things, and will continue to do so. Just because someone does something doesn't make it natural. What you seem to forget is, though, that polygamy is only 1 form of having multiple partners through life. You have many others to show it's a human desire, and not a rare one at that. You also have to understand that pedophilia is a perversion, wheras having multiple partners (or wanting to) isn't. Lastly, that "some" part, is better phrased as "the majority of us", and the polygamy part is better phrased as "any form of having more than one partner". Please, show me a polygamous culture where women have the same rights as men. Show me that, and I'll concede that point. I can't, because there isn't. However, that does not mean that mutual relationships are "the right way" (I'm neither saying they aren't, only that the West has a very specific lifesyle it encourages people to pursue, based on a consensus, and is going to stay that way even if it's not the right way.) Polygamy was widely accepted at past times, and if the Bible has it right, since almost the beginning of time. But we're straying away from the point. The point is that this desire to have more than one partner exists for thousands of years, and that shows we're not meant to ever only be with one partner. Just because something is natural doesn't mean everybody will do it, as you've already stated. Why do some people chose to remain celibate? That certainly isn't natural. Take a species that is "supposed" to ever only be with one partner. Penguins for example. Some (a tiny minority) of them choose to remain celibate, but those who don't, only ever mate with one partner, they don't have the desire to mate with more than one. Humans, however, do have that desire, and that desire is nothing new (as shown with the polygamy, cheating, affairs and adultery points). So, again, why do we have that desire, and how comes it's nothing new, if we're naturally supposed to only ever have one spouse? And you've still failed to prove why. Do you seriously think that, out of the species that mate for life, every single animal automatically mates for life? I doubt it. I find rather the majority will do what's natural. There will always be some who don't. I can't prove it, and neither can you prove the other side of the equation. It's not proveable, we're only assuming what seems most logical. However, I've shown firm evidence to support my theory, and you haven't. As for the majority doing "what's natural"- if what's natural is having one spouse, then the majority isn't doing what's natural. Both today and at past times. Key word majority. I'm not denying that polygamy, cheating etc are nonexistant, rather than they are not and have never been practiced by the majority of humans. A quick look at any history book will tell you that the overwhelming majority of cultures have had monogamous relationships intertwined. You're the one who said humans follow blindly what society tells them to. Morals could pose a great analogy here. We both agreed that morals were invented by humans, and that these are unnatural- yet the majority of the earth's population, both today and throughout history, believe murder is wrong. Because that's what we were taught, because people follow what society dictates almost blindly. I, myself, believe in monogamy, and I'm 99.999% certain that I believe in monogamy because that's what society has taught me, rather than because that's what's natural. I don't think monogamy is what's natural for us, which is why I'm certain marriage is not for anyone, and not every marriage can survive the years. Nor am I denying the human desire. However, it is natural for the father to care for his young, and then move on. Even the majority of animals stick around as mates for at least the first phases of their childrens development. If desire was really to be the be all and end all of society, why are fathers who abandon their young/spouses so looked down upon in today's society, hence the "deadbeat dad" title? Because that's what's acceptable by society today, not necessarily because that's what's natural for us to do.

Das. By far. ;)

Lol... I thought you meant something noticeable :P. Posts are actually moved to a secret board, therefore his postcount is not lowered.(Unless the posts in that board don't count for you postcount.) YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT THERE'S A SECRET BOARD CONTAINING EVERY TIF POST EVER DELETED!?!? Pretty much. 'Cept for the ones lost in the crush.

Lol... I thought you meant something noticeable :P.

No it hasn't...
